Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize recipient, spoke of . . . Mattie's devotion to peace. "He was deeply aware of global affairs," Carter said, recalling that Mattie was in Children's Hospital's intensive care unit when the war in Iraq began last year.

"Imagine if he had spent as much time and energy . . . planning peace."

Jimmy Carter "planned peace" and the result was Intifada in Israel and nukes in North Korea.

"Mattie burst into uncontrollable sobs and grief," Carter said, and soon after, the former president received a letter from his then-12-year-old friend: "I feel like President Bush made a decision long ago about the war," Mattie wrote. "Imagine if he had spent as much time and energy . . . planning peace."

This is totally sick. This degenerate sack of filth takes pride in so traumatizing a dying child that he has a pathological stress response. Jimmuh Carter has long since earned the contempt of all with even a modicum of integrity. This is obscene.

Jimmah Carter is a founding father of modern day terror and for him to ask for peace today and at the grave of a poor child is beyond anything I can even imagine.



Jimmah Carter YOU SUCK and keep your peace to yourself.

Indeed it does, but then when has the left ever shown tact?

I believe I recall 'ol Jimmy getting advice on international nuclear weapons policy from his daughter, Amy, while he was President.

Jimmy is just a guy who thinks 12-year-olds have all the answers.

Excellent reading; hard to put down. He was such an incredible disaster, it almost seems like fiction.

Just when you thought Bill Clinton was the tackiest ex-president, along comes Jimmy Carter to outcrass even him.

Clinton has been a pretty classy ex-pres. Most of his obnoxious classless behavior took place while he was in office, before he left. Carter has always been an abomination.

Do not forget "senile"!

911? Is the Snow ball effect from his impotence during the Iran affair! Look for more 911 if a change of government is made in the U.S.
